Greek Jewry in the twentieth century, 1913-1983 : patterns of Jewish survival in the Greek Provinces before and after the Holocaust

This book examines the events among Greek Jewry prior to and during the Second World War, and then ventures into a neglected scholarly area of recent history - the post-Holocaust years as experienced by the Jews living in the small Jewish communities in the Greek provinces. Including untapped archival documents, as well as oral histories and photographs from his fieldwork in Greece, author Joshua Eli Plaut focuses on individuals, their stories and struggles, to describe how the smaller Jewish communities adjusted to the new realities imposed on them by the Holocaust. Includes bibliographical references (pages 202-205) and index. 220 pages : illustrations, map ; 24 cm
